- the content thereof in the traction-drive fluid should be at least 1% by weight or, preferably, in the range from 5 to 60% by weight.
- a conventional traction-drive fluid can be imparted with a remarkably improved traction coefficient.

Description
- The present invention relates to a derivative of a 1,1-dicyclohexyl cycloalkane, a method for the preparation of the compound and a traction-drive fluid containing the compound.
- One of the important technological issues in the automobile industry is to develop a compact and light-weight traction-drive apparatus. Needless to say, a compact and light-weight traction-drive apparatus cannot be developed without a high-performance traction-drive fluid used therein. Accordingly, the requirements for the performance of traction-drive fluids are increasing in recent years to withstand the use under extremely severe conditions or, in particular, to exhibit high performance with stability in a wide temperature range from low temperatures to high temperatures. For example, traction-drive fluids are required to have a high traction coefficient in a temperature range from low to high temperatures, low viscosity, excellent oxidation resistance and the like among various kinds of other properties.
- In the prior art, proposals have been made in Japanese Patent Publications 46-338 and 46-339 for the use of a variety of compounds as a constituent of a traction-drive fluid. None of the prior art traction-drive fluids, however, can fully satisfy the above mentioned requirements for the properties of a high-performance fluid. For example, compounds having a high traction coefficient at high temperature generally have a defect that the viscosity of the compound is unduly high at room temperature and is rapidly increased as the temperature is decreased resulting in poor flowability and a great energy loss by agitation and thus the efficiency of power transmission is lowered. On the other hand, a compound having a low viscosity at room temperature to exhibit a high efficiency of power transmission at low temperatures usually has an unduly low traction coefficient at high temperatures and the viscosity thereof at high temperatures is so low that drawbacks are sometimes caused in the lubrication of the traction-transmission apparatus filled therewith.

- The 1,1-dicyclohexyl cycloalkane derivative represented by the above given general formula (I) is a novel compound not known in the prior art nor described in any literatures.
- This novel compound can be synthesized from the 1,1-di(hydroxyphenyl) cycloalkane compound represented by the above given general formula (II) as the starting material. Namely, the compound of the general formula (II) is first hydrogenated to give a 1,1-di(hydroxycyclohexyl) cycloalkane compound represented by the above given general formula (III) which is then subjected to a dehydration treatment and hydrogenation treatment to give the compound of the general formula (I).
- In the general formulas (I), (II) and (III), each of the symbols R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁵ and R⁶ can be a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms including methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, pentyl and hexyl groups. R¹ to R⁶ can be the same ones or different ones each independently from the others. When a molecule of the compound of the general formula (I) has two or more of each of R³, R⁴, R⁵ and R⁶, they can be the same ones or different ones from each other albeit they are denoted by the same symbol. Assuming that the subscript m is equal to 2, for example, a molecule of the compound has two of the groups denoted by R³ which can be, one, a methyl group and, the other, an ethyl group. Further, each of the groups denoted by R³, R⁴, R⁵ and R⁶ can be a divalent group forming an alkylene group jointly with either one of the other groups. The alkylene group has 1 to 12 carbon atoms and can be straightly linear or branched in structure. Examples of the alkylene group include methylene, ethylene, propylene, trimethylene, isopropylidene and isobutylene groups.
- The reaction for the preparation of the compound of the general formula (I) from the compound of the general formula (II) is performed in the presence of hydrogen, a hydrogenation catalyst and a dehydration catalyst. In practice, the reaction can be performed in three different ways. Firstly, the reaction is performed in the simultaneous presence of hydrogen, a hydrogenation catalyst and a dehydration catalyst. Secondly, the compound of the general formula (II) is first hydrogenated by using hydrogen and a hydrogenation catalyst and the hydrogenation product is then subjected to a reaction by using hydrogen, a hydrogenation catalyst and a dehydration catalyst. Thirdly, the compound of the general formula (II) is hydrogenated by using hydrogen and a hydrogenation catalyst to give a hydrogenation product which is subjected to successive reactions first by using a dehydration catalyst and then by using hydrogen and a hydrogenation catalyst to effect the second hydrogenation reaction. Though not limitative, the first method is preferred among the three because the reaction can be completed in one pot to be time-saving.
- The hydrogenation catalyst used in the above mentioned reaction can be any one of conventional hydrogenation catalysts containing one or more of the metallic elements such as nickel, ruthenium, palladium, platinum, rhodium, iridium, copper, chromium, molybdenum, cobalt, tungsten and the like. These metallic elements can be used as supported on a suitable catalyst carrier such as active carbon and the like.
- The dehydration catalyst is preferably a solid acid catalyst including conventional ones such as, for example, terra abla, i.e. activated earth and acid clay; zeolites, silica gel, alumina gel, silica-alumina gel, cation-exchange resins, heteropolyacids and the like.
- In carrying out the reaction according to the inventive method, the hydrogenation catalyst is used in an amount in the range from 0.1 to 100% by weight or, preferably, from 1 to 20% by weight and the solid acid catalyst is used in an amount in the range from 0.1 to 100% by weight or, preferably, from 1 to 20% by weight each based on the amount of the starting material.
- If desired, organic solvents can be used as a reaction medium in which the reaction according to the inventive method is performed. Examples of suitable organic solvents include saturated hydrocarbon solvents such as n-pentane, n-hexane, decane, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, methyl cyclohexane, ethyl cyclohexane, decahydronaphthalene and the like, aromatic hydrocarbon solvents such as benzene, toluene, xylene, tetrahydronaphthalene and the like and polar organic solvents such as acetone, ethyl alcohol and the like, of which the saturated hydrocarbon solvents are preferred because the aromatic hydrocarbon solvents may be hydrogenated in their part and the polar solvents can also be hydrogenated or dehydrated as a possibility.
- The above mentioned reaction is performed at a temperature in the range from room temperature to 300°C or, preferably, from room temperature to 220°C under a pressure in the range from normal pressure to 200 kg/cm²G or, preferably, from 5 to 150 kg/cm²G. The reaction is complete usually within 0.5 to 24 hours or, in most cases, within 1 to 8 hours. A good efficiency of the reaction can be obtained by first hydrogenating the starting compound at about 120°C for about 2 hours and then dehydrating and hydrogenating the product in the first step reaction at a temperature of 180 to 200°C for about 2 hours. The above mentioned temperature range is important because the dehydration reaction can hardly proceed at a temperature lower than room temperature while the starting compound of the general formula (II) may be subject to thermal decomposition when the temperature exceeds the upper limit. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture is filtered to remove the solid catalysts and, if necessary, stripped to be freed from the solvent to give the desired 1,1-dicylohexyl cycloalkane compound of the general formula (I) as the product.
- Examples of the 1,1-dicyclohexyl cycloalkane derivative represented by the general formula (I) and synthesized by the above described method include: 1,1-dicyclohexyl cyclopentane; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(methyl cyclohexyl) cyclopentanes; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(ethyl cyclohexyl) cyclopentanes; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(propyl cyclohexyl) cyclopentanes; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(butyl cyclohexyl) cyclopentanes; 1,1-di(methyl cyclohexyl) cyclopentanes; 1-(methyl cyclohexyl)-1-(ethyl cyclohexyl) cyclopentanes; 1,1-di(ethyl cyclohexyl) cyclopentanes; 1,1-dicyclohexyl-(methyl cyclopentanes); 1-cyclohexyl-1-(methyl cyclohexyl)-(methyl cyclopentanes); 1-cyclohexyl-1-(ethyl cyclohexyl)-(methyl cyclopentanes); 1-cyclohexyl-1-(methyl cyclohexyl)-(ethyl cyclopentanes); 1,1-di(methyl cyclohexyl)-(methyl cyclopentanes); 1,1-dicyclohexyl-(dimethyl cyclopentanes); 1,1-dicyclohexyl-(methyl ethyl cyclopentanes); 1,1-dicyclohexyl cyclohexane; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(methyl cyclohexyl)-cyclohexanes; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(ethyl cyclohexyl) cyclohexanes; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(propyl cyclohexyl) cyclohexanes; 1-cyclohexyl-1-(butyl cyclohexyl) cyclohexanes; 1,1-di(methyl cyclohexyl) cyclohexanes; 1-(methyl cyclohexyl)-1-(ethyl cyclohexyl) cyclohexanes; 1,1-di(ethyl cyclohexyl) cyclohexanes; 1,1-dicyclohexyl-(methyl cyclohexanes); 1-cyclohexyl-1-(methyl cyclohexyl)-(methyl cyclohexanes); 1-cyclohexyl-1-(ethyl cyclohexyl)-(methyl cyclohexanes); 1-cyclohexyl-1-(methyl cyclohexyl)-(ethyl cyclohexanes); 1,1-di(methyl cyclohexyl)-(methyl cyclohexanes); 1,1-dicyclohexyl-(dimethyl cyclohexanes); 1,1-dicyclohexyl-(methyl ethyl cyclohexanes); 2,2-dicyclohexyl-[2.2.1]bicycloheptane; 2-cyclohexyl-2-(methyl cyclohexyl)-[2.2.1]bicycloheptanes; 2,2-di(methyl cyclohexyl)-[2.2.1]bicycloheptanes; 2,2-dicyclohexyl-1,7,7-trimethyl-[2.2.1]bicycloheptane; 8,8-dicyclohexyl-[4.3.0]bicyclononane; 2,2-dicyclohexyl-[2.2.2]bicyclooctane and the like.
- These 1,1-dicyclohexyl cycloalkane derivatives in general have a low viscosity and a high traction coefficient at high temperatures so that they are quite satsifactory as a constituent of a traction-drive fluid. In addition, the 1,1-dicyclohexyl cycloalkane derivative can be used as blended with other conventional traction-drive fluids to improve the performance thereof. When the inventive compound is used as blended with other fluids, the content thereof in the traction-drive fluid should be at least 1% by weight or, preferably, in the range from 5 to 60% by weight. By this means of blending with the inventive 1,1-dicyclohexyl cycloalkane compound, a conventional traction-drive fluid can be imparted with a remarkably improved traction coefficient. Since the inventive 1,1-dicyclohexyl cycloalkane compound has a lower viscosity than that of conventional traction-drive fluids, the traction coefficient of the blend can be increased by increasing the proportion of the inventive compound in the blend.
- In the following, examples are given to illustrate the present invention in more detail.
- Into an autoclave of 1 liter capacity were introduced 101.79 g of 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) cyclohexane (Bisphenol Z, a product by Honshu Chemical Co., Ltd.) 30.40 g of a hydrogenation catalyst containing 5% by weight of ruthenium supported on an active carbon (a product by N.E Chemicat Co., Ltd.), 50.40 g of an activated earth (Galleon Earth NS, a product by Mizusawa Chemical Co., Ltd.) and 500 ml of ethyl cyclohexane as a solvent to form a reaction mixture which was heated at a temperature of 120°C for 2 hours and then at 190°C for 2 hours under a hydrogen pressure of 74563,1hPa (75 kg/cm²G) to effect the reaction. After the end of the above mentioned reaction time, the reaction mixture cooled to room temperature and taken out of the autoclave was filtered to remove the catalyst and the filtrate was freed from the solvent by distillation. The thus obtained reaction product was analyzed by the ¹H-NMR method to find no peaks assignable to the aromatic structure or olefinic unsaturation indicating at least 99.9% of hydrogenation. Further, the analysis by the ¹³C-NMR method indicated presence of a single quaternary carbon atom and two tertiary carbon atoms, the rest being secondary carbon atoms, in a molecule. The molecular weight of the compound was 248 corresponding to a molecular formula of C₁₈H₃₂ according to the result of the GC-MS analysis. The gas-chromatographic (FID) diagram had a single peak with a retention time of 15.1 minutes showing complete absence of the starting material. The gas chromatographic analysis was conducted under the following conditions.

Further, the traction coefficient of this compound was determined in a temperature range from 40°C to 140°C using a double-cylinder friction tester to give the results graphically shown in Figure 4. The two-disk machine had two cylinders of the same size with a diameter of 52 mm and thickness of 6 mm in contact with each other and the peripheral side surface of the driven cylinder was bulged in a barrel-like form with a raidus of curvature of 10 mm while the driving cylinder had a flat peripheral side surface without crowning. While the two cylinders were contacted with a load of 7 kg given by a spring, they were rotated, one, at a constant velocity of 1500 rpm and, the other, at a continuously varied velocity of 1500 to 1750 rpm to determine the tangential force, i.e. traction force, from which the traction coefficient was calculated. Each of the cylinders was made from a bearing steel SUJ-2 having a mirror-polished surface and the maximum Hertzian contact pressure was 10983,45·10³hPa (112 kgf/mm²). - Figure 4 gives the traction coefficient determined at a slip factor of 5% as a function of the oil temperature which was varied in the range from 40°C to 140°C by heating the oil tank with a heater.

After the end of the above mentioned reaction time, the reaction mixture cooled to room temperature and taken out of the autoclave was filtered to remove the catalyst. Analysis of the filtrate indicated that the acetone used as the solvent had been completely converted into isopropyl alcohol. Gas chromatographic analysis (FID) of the filtrate gave three peaks in the diagram of which the first of about 5% fraction was the same peak as obtained in Example 1 and the second peak at the retention time of 17.5 minutes and the third peak at the retention time of 20.8 minutes corresponded to an about 15% fraction and about 80% fraction, respectively. The residue left after stripping of the solvent from the filtrate by distillation was a solid which was recrystallized from hexane to give 135 g of a product having a retention time of 20.8 minutes in the gas chromatography with a purity of 98%.

After the end of the reaction time, the reaction mixture cooled to room temperature and taken out of the autoclave was filtered to remove the catalyst and the filtrate was analyzed by the gas chromatography (FID) to find that the gas chromatogram had the same peak with a retention time of 15.1 minutes as obtained in Example 1 in a selectivity of 95% with complete disappearance of the peak with a retention time of 20.8 minutes.
- Into a four-necked flask of 2 liter capacity were introduced 522 g of toluene, 27.6 g of anhydrous aluminum chloride and 12.6 g of nitromethane to form a mixture and 181.2 g of methallyl chloride were added dropwise to the mixture under agitation at 10°C over a period of 2 hours followed by further continued agitation for additional 1 hour to complete the reaction. Thereafter, 75 ml of water were added to the reaction mixture to decompose the aluminum chloride and the organic phase taken by phase separation was washed once with 200 ml of water and twice with 300 ml of a 1N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide followed by dehydration over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Thereafter, the mixture was stripped of the unreacted starting materials on a rotary evaporator and subjected to distillation under reduced pressure to give 262.5 g of a fraction boiling at 110 to 115°C under a pressure of 16 Pa (0.12 mmHg). Analysis of this product indicated that the product was composed of 75% of 2-methyl-1,2-ditolyl propane and 25% of 2-methyl-1,1-ditolyl propane as an isomerization product of the former.
- In the next place, 250 g of the above obtained product were introduced into an autoclave of 1 liter capacity together with 20 g of a nickel catalyst (N-113, a product by Nikki Chemical Co., Ltd.) and subjected to a hydrogenation reaction at a temperature of 170°C for 6 hours under a hydrogen pressure of 84369,8 hPa (85 kg/cm²G).
